Matthew 7:21-23
Worldwide English (New Testament)
21 `Some people say to me, "Lord, Lord". But not all who say that will go into the kingdom of heaven. Only those who do what my Father in heaven wants, will go in.
22 Many people will say to me on that day, "Lord, Lord, did we not speak in your name? Did we not drive bad spirits out of people in your name? Did we not do big works in your name?"
23 Then I will say to them, "I never knew you. Go away from me! What you do is very wrong!" '
